Clockwise from top left: Kids Preferred striped tray kit; BoostBloc2000; Tugo cup holder; Seedling blackboard mat.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Air travel requires a completely different set of rules than road trips: You\u2019ve got to pack smart, light and in accordance with a seemingly ever-changing list of security regulations. That\u2019s tricky enough for adults, but with kids you\u2019re trying to keep entertained in tow, it can feel near impossible. These items can help you all feel more in control, less up in the air.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.travelkiddy.com\/striped-traykit\/\"><b>Kids Preferred Striped Tray Kit\u00a0 <\/b><\/a><b><\/b><br \/>\nThis multi-tasker is perf for toddlers on the fly: It\u2019s a backpack that zips open and straps onto plane tray tables that you can fill with snacks, toys, arts projects and so one. It comes in several cute styles and\u2014best of all\u2014wipes clean in a snap. <i>$29.99<\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.warmze.com\/\"><b>Warmze Portable Bottle Warmer<\/b><\/a><br \/>\nNo need to worry about keeping that bottle of milk or formula warm enough for baby during long flights with this heating pad-like sleeve that stays warm for up to 10 hours without the use of electrical power or boiling water. <i>$14.99.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>&lt;ahref=&#8221;http:\/\/www.etoncorp.com\/en\/productdisplay\/boostbloc-2000&#8243;&gt;<b>BoostBloc2000<\/b><b>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/b><br \/>\nYou loaded all the games, movies and apps you could think of to keep your kids entertained inflight. What you didn&#8217;t count on was your smart device\u2019s battery dying because you waited an extra hour for takeoff or got diverted to Cleveland. Don&#8217;t fret: This teeny (fits in a shirt pocket) little battery backup block provides one full charge to most mobile devices. Available in larger sizes, too.<i> From $39.99<\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.goodthingsforkids.com\/product\/150\/\"><b>Seedling Blackboard Mat<\/b><\/a><br \/>\nWe love this soft, portable blackboard-and-chalk kit or so many reasons: it\u2019s noise-free (no bothering other passengers), it doesn&#8217;t have an on\/off switch (no prying it from little hands for takeoffs and landings) and it\u2019s lightweight enough for wee ones to carry themselves. Total score!! <i>$17.99<\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/goodtugo.com\/buy-now\"><b>Tugo Cup Holder<\/b><\/a><br \/>\nYou always feel like you need an extra arm or two when travelling with young kids, but let\u2019s face it: What you really need is another cup of coffee. This pliable cup holder, which fits a drink between the upright handles of your rolling luggage, makes that possible without the extra limb. Works for water bottles, too.\u00a0 <i>$12.95\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><em>Also check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/2013\/05\/family-friendly-travel-accessories-road-trip-edition\/\">Family-friendly travel accessories: Road trip edition<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><i><i>Inspired to travel?
